An extension of the Blade Element Momentum method applied to Diffuser Augmented Wind Turbines

TL;DR: In this paper, an innovative approach to the analysis of Diffuser Augmented Wind Turbines (DAWTs) using the Blade Element Momentum (BEM) Method, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) calculation on diffusers and conservation principles is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decision support system for micro-hydro power plants in the Amazon region under a sustainable development perspective

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a decision support system (DSS) that analyzes the feasibility of setting up micro-hydro power (MHP) plants under a sustainable development perspective, considering hydrological, topographical, geotechnical, environmental, energy, economic and social aspects of the target site.
Journal ArticleDOI

Drought severity based on the SPI index and its relation to the ENSO and PDO climatic variability modes in the regions North and Northwest of the State of Rio de Janeiro - Brazil

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) for the monthly and annual scales, as well as its relationship with El Nino - Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and Pacific Decadal Oscillations (PDO) to evaluate the droughts in regions North and Northwest of Rio de Janeiro state.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessment of hydrokinetic energy resources downstream of hydropower plants

TL;DR: In this article, the Saint-Venant model was applied and calibrated by linear regression of measured and simulated flow rates, which resulted in a correlation of 0.96 and 0.99, respectively.
